I don't have a problem with people taking selfies, but for myself I don't want to take any selfies of me.  I don't like pictures of myself.

I don't really care.  I deleted facebook a few weeks ago because of all the drama, fighting, people getting mad over comments they misunderstand, and just general stupid stuff.  I do think people need to think about the fact that when they take a selfie and make a stupid fish face that if you end up dead or missing that is the picture that will be shared by the news sources.

As long as they convey a message (like someplace neat you visit) and are not just one more same old boring photos, I think it's cool. I recently did one of my wife and I underneath the Eiffel Tower that brought in a few comments.

I don't mind them. If that is what makes them happy then more power to them.

Really don't mind the selfies so much, what irritates me is the duckie/kissy faces.

I'm not really interested in people's selfies. I don't care what they do with their cell phone and Facebook. There must be more to life than posting selfies on social media.

Some people really seem to get into it.  I personally don't like my picture taken.  I don't like seeing people make the really stupid faces.
Have a wonderful day!

I don't pay much attention to them at all.

I personally don't like selfies or any other kind of picture of myself at the present time, but if it makes someone else happy to take selfies that's there business. However, some people take selfies or snaps constantly, even when they should be concentrating on other things and that's when it annoys me.

I think the instagram accounts of people who just post selfies are quite funny... and sad... like they think they are so original and beautiful that they'll be a model or discovered because they are so awesome and unique.  Truthfully, they look just like everyone else, at least here in So Cal.... dime a dozen.   So narcissistic.... but hey if that's what they want to do, they have the right, & I have the same right to think it is silly especially if they have a public profile...   fair game. :)

I think these people are very stuck on them themselves and conceited. If they have something new or exciting to tell us about or show us then great. If its just the same person, a different day I'll pass.
